Figure Lengend Snippet: Secondary screen identifies candidate genes potentially involved in APA regulation. ( a ) Schematic of the secondary CRISPR screen based on differential CD47 localization. ( b ) Quantification of MFI values from FACS analysis of CD47. The double staining approach was applied to HeLa cells stably expressing control shRNA or shRNA targeting candidate genes. Results are presented as mean ± s.d. ****, P < 0.0001; ***, P < 0.001; **, P < 0.01 (two-tailed t-test for independent samples, n = 3). ( c ) qRT-PCR analysis of total CD47 mRNA and the long 3′ UTR isoform in HeLa cells stably expressing control shRNA or shRNA targeting candidate genes. Results are presented as mean ± s.d. ****, P < 0.0001; ***, P < 0.001; **, P < 0.01 (two-tailed t-test for independent samples, n = 3).
Article Snippet: For pooled genome-wide CRISPR screening, the Guide-it CRISPR Genome-Wide sgRNA Library (Takara), comprising 76,612 sgRNAs targeting 19,114 human genes, was packaged into lentivirus following the manufacturer’s protocol.
